I just got my MacBook and am trying out the Flash BUilder on said platform. I've installed Firefox and Google Chrome on my MacBook but I can't seem to find a way to set which browser would launch my Flex apps whenever I hit the Run button inside Flash Builder. As far as I know, I can locate the Browser property on the Project Properties on my Windows copy of Flash Builder but I couldn't over here at my Mac. Any thoughts?

I am trying to load an external swf (which, come to find out, does not include the background color of the loaded swf) into a movieclip. It seems to be pretty easy. But the movieclip I am loading it into is smaller than the swf I am loading. Is there a way to specify size parameters? In other words, is there a way to scale the swf down so that it fits into the movieclip?

how to set default property values for objects that are being created in a loop.
In the example below, these propeties are the same for each object created in the loop: titleTextField.selectable, titleTextField.wordWrap, titleTextField.x
If you pull these properties out of the loop, they are null because the TextField objects have not been created, but it seems silly to have to set them each time.
var titleTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleTextFormat.size = 10;
titleTextFormat.font = "Arial";

I've got a comboBox with defined data and label fields. On Event.CHANGE I capture the data field. I need the comboBox to default back to the user selection if they should navigate to another screen and then come back. Normally I've got an array of labels that I can use to just lookup the index: comboBox.selectedIndex = labelArray.indexOf(user selection); In this case I don't have labelArray. What I really want to do is something like this (only with real AS, not fake):
comboBox.selectedData = storedDataString or, if the data array is accessible: comboBox.selectedIndex = comboBox.data.indexOf(user selection); Is there an easy way to do this, or should I just suck it up and add yet another global label array?
Mac OSX 10.4.11 - CS4. I have a supplied video.flv that I have in Flash with a skin control and exported as video.swf and inserted into a GoLive site, all is well apart from the excessive sound.

How do you set the default value of skinClass for a custom component in Flex? I've extended the DropDownList with my custom component, but I would like to specify a default skin to go with it instead of always setting the skinClass value for each instance.
View 1 RepliesI have a movieclip with the instance name of "container_mc" that I am loading a external swf file into.When I trace(container_mc._width) after the preload it returns 0.Is there any way to tell the movieclip to stay at a width of 760px and a height of 460px regardless of the content that is loaded?Reason being, I then have a function that positions the container_mc movieclip in the center of the stage based on the Stage.width/height..The only way I have been able to get this to work thus far is to have a 760px by 460px square shape, position the movieclip.. then load the content to replace the square shape however I'd rather be able to default everything without having to do that.
View 3 RepliesI have a Flash Form that is fairly long (about 8 short pages), so I have set the form up so that it can be reviewed when the filler-outer is done and they are ready to submit it. I'm using a Shared Object to store the information they enter so they won't lose their information if they hit refresh or need to come back later.
If they go back to the page with comboboxes on it, the comboboxes have reset to the default. The answer and data in the SO haven't changed, but it looks like it to the consumer/viewer.
So, I'd like for the boxes to display the choice they picked when they were on that page. I need use the value from the database to show the particular value in the ComboBox whenever the user returns to that page.
i have a text input box in which i want to insert Hebrew (RTL language) text. now, the RTL support i need is basic, and thats easy enough to do. however, for entering hebrew in the box, the user has to set hebrew in his windows language bar. is there a way of making the default input language in the box hebrew, regardless of what is currently set in the language bar? note - the hebrew characters are showing just fine, its just that to enter them you have to make sure the language bar is set to hebrew as well.

View 1 RepliesIn Flash CSn/AS3 you associate a Main class with a flash file which when loaded in the flash player "automatically creates an instance of the program's main class."I'd like to know how to pass arguments to the main class, since you don't write it yourself (you put its name in the Document textfield in the IDE).
View 1 RepliesI'm working on an accordion component and I was thinking that it'd be cool if I could write a very basic one and then set it up so that it would be possible to pass in any kind of container class and child class so long as they subclassed a particular parent or implemented an interface (haven't really gotten that far yet).
What I've noticed though is that I can't setup a default class for my constructor parameter. For example I'd like to do this:
Code:
public function DropDownList(containerClass:Class = ContainerSprite, childClass:Class = ChildSprite)
However it gives me the following error:
1047: Parameter initializer unknown or is not a compile-time constant.

There is a library component represented by Class A. But constructor of this class requires some parameters. When the component needs to be added dynamically, it's fine because of code :
var abc:A = new A(param1,param2)
But what if my movieclip is already present on the stage. I notice it gives out error, that the parameters are null.
Is their any way to insert constructor parameters for movieclips already on stage.
